Yes, that's absolutely true. Assuming a full PGP flow, (e.g., proton to proton) even in that case the recipient and other metadata (in tuta, excluding subject line) is still visible to the provider.

Hopefully the more people move to secure providers, the more the general case will be transparent PGP, but we are a long way from there...
